Reflexes, or reflex actions, are involuntary, almost instantaneous movements in response to a specific stimulus. Reflex arcs that contain only two neurons, a sensory and a motor neuron, are considered monosynaptic. Examples of monosynaptic reflex arcs in humans include the patellar reflex and the Achilles reflex.
A microwave oven uses microwaves. This is a kind of electromagnetic wave. The energy source for the microwave oven is AC (alternating current, electricity), available in many houses.
A microwave oven works by passing microwave radiation through the food. Water, fat, and sugar molecules in the food absorb energy from the microwave beam in a process called dielectric heating.Some molecules rotate as they try to align themselves with the alternating electric field induced by the microwave beam. microwave oven works by passing microwave radiation through the food.
